The Avidor Approach
Put simply, we find and develop great investment opportunities to generate returns for our principals and partners. We like to start with complex situations where other groups balk, and then dig in with unparalleled intensity, rigor and discipline to discover and extract value.
The result is simplified, vetted entry points for our principals and partners into hard-to-find deals, with significant upside potential and tangible paths to liquidity.
